Rather, you're just chasing a nut with just anyone whom you think will drop her britches for your $. And you didn't read up about her because it was too time consuming for you.
Or she really didn't have ANYTHING about her for you to read. (Rather she just looked like a TOS hottie in the pics she (or he) posted).
And you send her $up front...and get scammed.
That's on y'all. That's NOT on all the truly honest & legit ladies in this LS whom Do honor their word.
Again, it's All about whom you choose to see.

I have to agree with Ms. Companion here. I made myself a promise before I jumped into the hobby to always do as much research as I possibly could on a provider before I set an appointment and never use one site as my sole source of information. Thinking with the little head is how you'll find yourself in regrettable situations. Took me a long time to learn that lesson in the RW.
So I don't have an issue with an upfront deposit at all. Only had to do it a couple of times and it turns out that neither of those sessions happened. The first lady gave me a 48 hour heads up that she had to cancel and offered a full refund of my deposit. I will admit that I did get burned on the second though. It was a complete one off situation and I knew going into it there was a good chance of a no show on this one. Fortunately, there were some things in place to minimize losses and being that the provider had to travel 3 hours to get to our appointment location, a deposit didn't seem unreasonable (refer back to Greyghost's post from earlier on this thread). I felt like the reward outweighed the risk on this one at the time.
Deposits are usually a fraction of the total donation. So do your research, pay the deposit if the lady has a good reputation, and if you lose out on it then count it as a lesson learned and move on. I have a good feeling that if a provider can ask for an upfront deposit, get it, and still have a stellar reputation from multiple sources...then you're going to have one hell of a time when you do get together. I wouldn't let it scare you away from seeing a lady that has piqued your interest. Again though, it's all about the reputation. New provider, no reviews, only on one site, can't get any details from other hobbyest on her...I'd move on.
Plus these ladies have to weed through a ton of bullshit on a daily basis and all we have to do is a little research on our end. Pay the ladies, don't be a dick, and have a good time. Don't let your pecker make all the decisions for you.
